Like I’m not telling people not to read them used or from the library, but if you’re arguing that it is ethically okay to buy them new, then I assume you just don’t care about trans people. Or the fact that JKR literally quoted Mein Kampf. Or the fact that antisemitism, misogyny, fatphobia, and racism are hard baked into her work, but that’s a whole other can of worms.
You’re exactly the type of person I’m talking about. Every cent JKR makes is going toward harmful causes. She says herself what she does with her money and regularly proves how much she truly shovels toward evil legislature. If you’re buying new HP merch, books, and video games, then you are sending money directly to anti trans causes. Oh and you’re supporting a nazi apologist who is friends with Nazis and has quoted Hitler…
“No ethical consumption under capitalism” has to do with things you need. Not things you want enough to kick down at marginalized groups. Don’t weaponize leftist statements in order to justify support of a nazi sympathizer. We know better and we do better. We do our best not to cause harm, not excuse it.
Go argue with someone else about supporting genocidal bitches who quote Hitler. I am not the one. In fact I am done engaging with you and will be blocking you now. It’s been 10 hours and you had to come back to make another stupid argument. Get shitty authors’ books used if you need them sooooo bad when there are thousands of better authors to support out there. 🙄
